24. Some were convinced by what he said, while others refused to believe.
25. So when they disagreed among themselves, they began leaving after Paul had said one last statement: “The Ruach ha-Kodesh rightly spoke through Isaiah the prophet to your fathers,
26. saying, ‘Go to this people and say, “You will keep on hearing but will never understand; you will keep looking, but will never see.

31. proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Yeshua the Messiah with all boldness and without hindrance.
